schedule |
With 37 consecutive winning seasons up until 2007, Aggie Football is a source of great pride for UC Davis. The Ags used to have the longest active winning streak in DI or DII; beat that Cal!
The Ags take part in two annual rivalry games: Sacramento State in the Causeway Classic and Cal Poly in the Horseshoe Classic. UC Davis is 19-16-2 all-time versus Cal Poly (5-3 in the Horseshoe Classic after the 2011 game) and 39-17 against Sac State.
Current team
The Aggie Football team started off the 2010 season with a 52-3 loss against UC Berkeley, and finished the season with a 6-5 record, having beaten Cal Poly 22-21 in the Horseshoe Classic, and rival Sacramento State in the Causeway Classic.
Past Seasons
2005
In 2005, the Aggie Football team took part in arguably the greatest upset in college football history by beating the Stanford Cardinal in their stadium. "Home football games" are the epitome of the college experience — see the schedule to find out when the next game is.
For a recap of the completely unexpected upset of Stanfurd (come on Perry, get the spelling right!), as well as video highlights (more like a documentary), check out this link. This impressive win against Stanford developed quite a reputation for UCD's first season. When Stanford's crowd started chanting "Upset" at the Stanford v. Cal rivalry game, Bears fans replied by chanting "UC Davis". Throughout 2006, there seems to be a surprising amount of enthusiasm about Davis Football at Cal.
2006
The Aggies completed the 2006 season by keeping the consecutive winning streak alive and finishing 6-5. 2006 was an was a season with its highs and lows. The Ags suffered set backs in close losses to Cal Poly and North Dakota State, but ended the season on a high note by defeating Sac State and the University of San Diego.
The 2006 season will be remembered as the last season played at Toomey Field. It was also the last season UC Davis played before officially joining the ranks of Division 1.
Student attendance during the 2006 season was at an all time high during the school year. Capacity Aggie Pack crowds filled Toomey field with noise and of course tube socks.
2007
The Aggies embark on "a new era" in 2007. With a new stadium, new uniforms, and becoming Division I excitement around the program was high. Season tickets sales were at an all time high, and sell outs are expected at Aggie Stadium sometime this century.
2008
2009
The Aggies beat North Dakota 28-20 to take the Great West Conference Championship, and finished with a 6-5 record, losing the Causeway Classic to Sacramento State.
